The buoyant force of water will partially counteract the weight of the rock, making it feel lighter. The force required to move the rock will be less than 50 pounds, as a portion of its weight is offset by the buoyant force. The exact force needed will depend on the shape and density of the rock, and the friction between the rock and the surface it is resting on.
To move 1 ton (2000 pounds) on a surface with no friction, you would need a force equivalent to its weight, which is about 2000 pounds-force. This force is equivalent to about 8,900 newtons.
The action and reaction forces on a person swimming in water do not cancel each other out because they act on different objects. The person exerts a force on the water to move forward, and the water exerts an equal and opposite reaction force on the person, propelling them forward.
No, this statement is not true. When a person swims through water, work is being done because the person is exerting a force to move their body through the water against resistance. Work is calculated as force multiplied by distance, so swimming does involve work.
Water moves the boat by exerting a force on it in the opposite direction to the movement of the boat. When the propeller of the boat rotates, it pushes water backwards, which, in turn, propels the boat forward. This reaction force from the water helps move the boat through the water.
The force exerted by a person or thing is simply called force. Force is a push or pull that can cause an object to move, change direction, or deform.
It would depend on how fast you wanted it to move, there is a formula for this, and also pounds is a type of mass not force, so you would have to convert

not the force of water, but gravity and density does
If you are asking about a garden water hose. This can move with the force of water traveling through it. It can also move from the temperature of the water it holds.

200 pounds
By having a force act on that person.
Water moves the boat by exerting a force on it in the opposite direction to the movement of the boat. When the propeller of the boat rotates, it pushes water backwards, which, in turn, propels the boat forward. This reaction force from the water helps move the boat through the water.
Gravity
the pressure and force of the water.
